(asked on 28th May 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they plan to continue the programme for the completion of coastal access in England.
This question was answered on 4th June 2015
The coastal access programme has so far opened up 101 miles of our beautiful coastline for everyone to enjoy, boosting local tourism and growing the rural economy.
The Government is working closely with Natural England to build on the progress already made. We have approved Natural England’s coastal access proposals for a further 94 miles and by the end of this financial year we expect Natural England to have submitted proposals for another 431 miles.
